    How can I make results of a formula values that can be filtered or use vlookup

    I am having an issue in that I am using various formulas to move, split data, etc from various sources.
    The problem is when my final results post to the final destination that I want, I still need to either run advanced filters, or a vlookup with the results. I can’t do this because as an example
    if cell A1 shows a value of: A127
    the actual cell content is: =RIGHT(A2,FIND(" ",A2&" ")-2)

    Everything I read said to copy and paste special values, but this doesn’t work for me as the idea is to have the formulas/macros run everything and eliminating cutting and pasting.
    In the case above I have a formula that pulls that info from a spreadsheet that is saved every week. Once it is pulled part of it is cut out in another column. I then need to run a vlookup on those results for data already contained on another tab.

    Hi asvben457,

    I am unable to get your query. do you want to read formula instead of the result produced by that formula ?
